If you’re like many, the first time skydiving came up in conversation as something to do; it was after a few rounds with that one friend. At the time, even you had to admit that it sounded like a great idea, but now the sun has come up on a bright new day, and it just sounds… crazy! Fun, of course, but nuts. “It’s dangerous, isn’t it? Parachutes flat-out don’t work sometimes, right? I mean, YouTube ..read more

What is a Pro Pass? Well, remember the all-you-can-eat buffets? You pay X amount and stack up your plate as high as you can of whatever goodness is on those buffet lines and eat your heart out. *Woah*… The memories that just flooded in: It’s 1999 and you just made your third vanilla and chocolate swirl ice cream bowl with sprinkles and brownie bites and Cher is playing over the speakers.

You’re dedicating yourself to jumping as much as your heart desires, so long as the plane is flying and the weather is shining. S ..read more

For those of you asking, “What is an A-license?” It's the first requirement after you’ve decided to learn how to jump solo. It’s your entry into skydiving after you’ve decided to turn it into a hobby.

So yeah… Skydiving isn’t exactly a cheap sport to get into. If the idea of joining our amazing community is something you’re considering, we’d be doing you a massive disservice if we didn’t say that up front. It can certainly feel like a whole lot of coin to pony up, but there is much to consider when you’re eyeing that price tag ..read more

It’s April finally! It’s been nearly six months since your last skydive. How do you make sure you’re current and ready to go?  No matter what license you hold, whether it’s an A or a D, you should always enter the new season with caution. Skills get rusty after a layoff, even if you’re extremely experienced. Getting re-current can sometimes feel like a chore we must complete before having fun with our friends again, but it’s much more than that.
